Beer: Ratings & Reviews

This beer was on the co-pilot tasting menu for the Mountain Standard 2010 Release. In the notes for this beer, it was listed as an American Imperial Stout aged in Woodcut #4 Barrels. That Woodcut wood ... does good (if pricey) things for beer, seriously.

L: Black, with red around the edges. Head is a touch thin, but still holds its own.

S: Wood is priority #1 with a bullet in the nose, nearly overpoweringly so. Back is sweet, slightly bitter. Wood is there throughout.

T: This is a big brew. First thing is booze, next is a naked no-frills imp stout trying hard to show through a beautiful oak veneer.

F: Ridiculously thick and syrupy.

D: Enjoyable. But a full pour of this would be nearly unfinishable. Still, hours after the tasting, this beer probably sticks out the most in my mind.
